Quick sprint humiliates Cayenne Turbo

Ever have a ***** just HAVE to get ahead of you into a turn lane?

It happens alot on the mean streets I drive, and since this particular ***** was driving a Cayenne Turbo, I decided he could fall in behind me since I had already passed him once in normal driving and he was in the wrong lane to make a turn. So we're lined up at the stoplight, at red, with him on my left, with about an 1/8th of a mile to the next light where we both wanted to make a right turn. The light turns green and I hear him seriously gun it as he tries to get a jump on me and cut me off by moving into my lane to make the turn up ahead. Not gonna happen.

I give the throttle a blast and easily stay ahead of him. Seeing he's not going to pass, he falls in behind me and then proceeds to illegally cut through a hotel parking lot to get to the street we're supposed to turn onto. For him, a lesson learned. For me, a childish but worthwhile experience.

nice...I had a Ford Lightning try that stunt on me. The Pcar must not have known that you had some muscle under the hood.

I always get that..some hoopy struggles to get in front of me and cut me off for no reason....most of the time i let it slide since half the people around here are probably driving around uninsured.

If he was being an a$$, you should've gone just fast enough so he couldn't get in front of you, but slow enough so he couldn't drop in behind you
